Pros

-love the people I work with -OTO -perks and benefits -fast growing company

Cons

-management: there are some really bad managers who SHOULD NOT be in a leadership role. Many are known to be 'bad' but no one will do anything about it. They keep saying "we will coach them" but honestly, some people cannot be coached into being a good manager. This affects their team and employees and people end up blaming the individuals instead of looking at the manager. -culture: getting worse and worse as time goes on. There really isn't a culture to be honest and the culture ambassador in this office really does not do anything. Very political. -pay: very low paying for a tech company in this area. They say it is because of all the other benefits we get, but at the end of the day, people work for money.

Pros

Very supportive managers and a fun, highly collaborative team. The department fosters an environment where ideas are openly shared and opportunities for improvement are discussed constructively without toxicity. Truly the best company I’ve worked for so far.

Cons

The interview process was somewhat lengthy, and salary discussions were not entirely consistent.

Pros

It was okay before the favoritism and gender pay gaps

Cons

There is a lot of favoritism. When I found out I was making far less than a male coworker in the same role with less years of experience, they did nothing to rectify the situation. Also, the CEO is far too involved in Product and dictates rather than collaborates
